MAGIC




Here we go magic



Think Bon Iver with more instruments yet equally as beautiful enough said.

ELECTRO ELECTRO!



As the title suggests bit of an ELECTRO theme to this post.

First off, Dan Deacon's latest album Bromst due out march 24th! Luckily Gareth and i secured a cheeky Pre-release copy! we love it! For those of you new to Deacon he creates some of the craziest electro songs your ever likely to hear flipping from incredibly fast 8 bit riffs and beats, to Beautiful poppy melodies played on xylophone and a whole host of other instruments. Sort of like Hot chip with a firework up their arse, leading them to play in some sort of insane yet comprehensible frenzy.My literary abilities do not do it justice nor begin to describe how mental it is.

Check it...

Secondly, Telepathe (pronounced telepathy) the wicked Brooklyn duo who's latest album came out in January i believe! They're almost like a slightly female based; bit more electronic version of yeasayer, though with some spoken word thrown in for banter's sake. Having been Produced by TV on the radio's David Sitek; it also has the style of anyone of his projects. Anyway nuff chattin. Here's the link:

Update.


Thanks to all who came down last Thursday, it was fun...

SOme music for you.

We love:

The first Metronomy album. Under-appreciated for no good reason other than the fact that it snuck under the radar before a truly brilliant scond album in 'Nights Out', "Pip Paine (Pay Back the £5000 you owe)' is wicked.

Check this out...

Download: Metronomy - Black Eye & Burnt Thumb

Also, have a gander at their general visual brilliance...



Next, to dig Titus Andronicus is not difficult, but of course we do it anyway:



Also, check out our boy Paul Dixon. He's our friend and a HeartBeats regular (so far!).
Give him a good listen, he's gonna be bigger than Eiffel 65 (so, you know, at least averagely sized!).



But seriously, he is going to take over Manchester. Check him out soon supporting the Noisettes at The Ruby Lounge on March 14th. Don't be stupid... GO!

Myspace

That's all for now folks, keep it milky.

We've been dormant

But we're up and running again.

Things we like at the moment:

Cut Off Your Hands - Turn Cold

Fellas from NZ. No Flight of The Conchords but I suppose who is?



The Maccabees sophomore album is finished recording and they've given fans a taster.

The song is called No Kind Words and we love it...

Just head to the website for a free download...

Also, we're vibing off Passion Pit. We're not completely sure about them yet but giving them the time of day that this song deserves:



Anyway, HeartBeats launches TOMORROW NIGHT... We hope y'all can make it.

It is going to be wonderful.

Ca Plane Pour Moi...

No need for the usual rambling, this song does all the talking...



Can;t believe I only heard this song a week ago.

It's music to get all French to.
